Which of these supports the idea that Earth’s Core is largely liquid iron?Group of answer choicesEarth’s large mass can only be explained by large amounts of a heavy element in its interiorEarth’s magnetic field points to the presence of a metallic liquid in its interiorS-waves are absorbed as they travel through Earth’s deep interiorAll of these taken together are the basis for the present model of Earth’s Core

Earth’s Outer Core is liquid because it ______ Earth’s solid Inner CoreGroup of answer choicesit is hotter thanit is at lower pressure thanhas a different chemical composition from

Chemical Composition of the Earth, by layerElement Crust Mantle Outer Core Inner CoreIron 5.63% 8.72% 67.8% 85.2%Oxygen 46.1% 44.8% 5.31% >1%Silicon 28.2% 21.5% 3.97% >1%The Earth is composed of four distinct layers–the solid outer crust, the viscous mantle, the liquid outer core, and the solid inner core. Scientists have long researched and hypothesized the chemical composition of each layer, using seismic waves, volcanic activity and magnetic fields to determine measurements. The crust and mantle are composed heavily of oxygen and silicon while in the outer core and inner core are comprised of primarily Iron. For each deepening layer, the density of the matter increases. Scientists have hypothesized that this is due to the abundance of heavy elements like iron in the outer and inner core compared with lighter elements like oxygen and silicon in the crust and mantle. For example, the percentage of iron in the mantle is 8.72% whereas the percentage of ------- Which choice effectively uses data from the table to complete the example?iron in the crust 5.63%. eliminateiron in the inner core is 85.2%. eliminateoxygen in the mantle is 46.1%. eliminateoxygen in the inner core is >1%.
